Ryan, Good to hear you didn't make a large loss. Just curious how you didn't come out better. It's been a pretty quiet month hasn't it? lol,...
Nick, Just wanted to clarify a few things: 1) You've chosen to practice a long vega position: the caledar. Is this because you think that...
I aim to please :) Tales of your itchy trigger finger likewise brings much welcome relief and levity to an otherwise staid environment.
lol yes, your IC is looking pretty solid right now. Good call.
Donna, Technically yes. It depends on what model is being used to calculate IV but in general most platforms will be using the same BS model...
Ryan, Without looking into this in detail I would suspect this is more to do with the Nov 1245 calls moving along the IV skew over the last...
That's genuinely classic.
Okay, Phil has taken off his bear put spread so it must be time to short the market lol. Facetious mood today, sorry. Momoney.
...and there was me thinking MACD was somewhere to get a Big Mac and fries. Next you're going to tell me that RSI is not something you get when...
Nick, What was your reasoning for legging out of the call spread? Is this going to be part of your overall strategy (legging in/out) or was...

....think you have me confused with someone else. I have no positions on the NDX! Not in a hurry to get a stomach ulcer lol. Any comments I...
Joethemoustache, Nice spreadsheet. Had a quick look at this if you want my wacky opinion. More sane opinions to follow from others I'm sure....
Rdemyan, I hear what you are saying but I'm not sure I fully agree with your assessment. With an IC, I agree there is no additional RISK but...
Firstly, lets acknowledge that the God of probability is probably (pun intended) as much a false idol as the God of TA. You may indeed worship...
Just on that small point. I'm sure most people are aware, but for those that aren't, this is one of the artefacts of the IV skew. What that...
Okay, I'll play yin to Phil's yang on this one. I wouldn't know my EMA from my ass i.e. I don't pay much if any attention to TA including...
ouch! oh well, live and learn. That's interesting. Are you saying that the short weekly 1235 calls are not being treated as naked for...
Parisd, A quick stab at these: It depends how agressive you want to be, how wide the b/a spread is, how wide your spread is, how many lots...
